Hess Select Cabernet Sauvignon 2008

California, United StatesBarnyard, Band-Aid, bretty nose with smoked leather, prune, coffee, resin, tobacco aromas; very unclean. The attack is supple, the palate smooth but with more smoked leather, prune, Band-Aid, meaty, resin, animal flavours. Full of brettanomyces and not much else. Avoid this one.Tasted: 08 December 2011Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:
